1) Tell us who you are outside of the club. What do you do, how would you describe yourself? I am a larger than life character and work for the home office (just a desk job!). I enjoy playing golf and fishing!

2) How did you end up at Merton FC, and what is your favourite thing about the club? I ended up at Merton due to knowing a few of the first teamers at the time. I was asked to come along and naturally fitted into the sixth team! My favourite thing about the club is that everyone is really welcoming and the bants is unbelievable!

3) Please tell us your personal career highlight with Merton FC? Scoring 5 goals last season from left back. That’s premier league standard! And also winning the MFC golf day!

4) What was your funniest moment at Merton FC (on the pitch or off it)? Getting golf balled whilst pouring out a jug. Downing 3 pints in one wasn’t the best idea!

5) What are your goals and expectations for your team this season? Now the sixes have been promoted (not sure how!), I want us to be competitive but not to take away the fun side of playing football. Hopefully a mid table finish will be a good start at this new level for us.
